Notes Of Church Services.

The revival at the Friends Church continues
with increasing success in the results of the
work that is being conducted by Mr.. David Had
ley. The attendance has been large at each meet
ing this week and much interest has been aroused
Beginning next Sunday special mission serv-
ices will be held at Christ Church by DR.. Court
ney, prominent Episcopalian divine of Boston.
The first service will be specially in the interest
of laboring men. who have been invited, through
their organizations, to attend.
The ladies of Roberts Park Oh urch are en-
gagged in forming rather novel organization for
a mysterious purpose. They are holding nightly
meetings, and are being secretly drilled. but no
one seems to know more about their movements
than that they are going to do something sur
prising soon.

The Weather Last Night.

The beauty of yesterday afternoon and even
ing was not in the scintllating arctic beads that
gemmed the frozen thorouehfares. but the fact,
too infinite to be appreciated, that not snow
ball knocked the stately plug hat from the po-
litical head that was immaculate of hair The
small boy for once was passed without suspicion
in fact, he had to be, as there WASN'T snow
enough in the town to make good-sized snow
ball, last night. 1t was worse. When it had
hailed like hail-alwavs does-it seeted on
the hail. and made the streets as slick and as
bright as glass. "Just keep your ankles stiff, y
remarked the man who knew it all to hum.
BILE, slow-gong Journal pedestrian" and you
will have perfect command of yourself Don't
hug the walls and fences. Come out where I
am" The reporter did this; but it was to nick
the banged-up and bruised advce-giver from an
uncomfortable position he was maintaining on
the fat of his back on the curbstone.
